On February 1, 2021, Oragenics, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners, as sales agent (the “Agent”), pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time, through or to the Agent, as sales agent and/or principal (the “Offering”) shares of its common stock (the “Shares”). Any Shares offered and sold in the Offering will be issued pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-235763) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 31, 2019 and declared effective on January 13, 2020 (the “Form S-3”), the base prospectus dated January 13, 2020 included in the Form S-3 and the prospectus supplement relating to the Offering, dated February 1, 2021, that will be filed with the SEC providing for up to $20,000,000 of sales of shares of common stock.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Sales Agreement, the Agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell the Shares from time to time, based upon the Company’s instructions. Under the Sales Agreement, the Agent may sell the Shares by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

The Company has no obligation to sell any of the Shares, and may at any time suspend offers under the Sales Agreement. The Offering will terminate upon (a) the election of the Agent upon the occurrence of certain adverse events, (b) 10 days’ advance notice from one party to the other, or (c) the sale of all of the Shares.

Under the terms of the Sales Agreement, the Agent will be entitled to a commission at a fixed rate of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from each sale of Shares under the Sales Agreement. The Company will also reimburse the Agent for certain expenses incurred in connection with the Sales Agreement, and agreed to provide indemnification and contribution to the Agent with respect to certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

The Company currently intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to continue funding our pre-clinical development of our SARS-CoV-2 vaccine, Terra CoV-2 and our lantibiotics program and for general corporate purposes, including research and development activities, capital expenditures, the redemption of all or a portion of our outstanding Series C Preferred Stock at its stated value and working capital.
